Klamath is Calling: Delight in the City of Sunshine

Your 1.59 acres of sunshine sits smack dab in the #1 place to retire in the West (according to Money magazine), Klamath County, OR.  With a moderate four-season climate and 300 days of sunshine, you can spend your days hiking and mountain biking, golfing at five courses, freshwater fishing at over 100 lakes, rivers and streams, or flying high at Oregon’s longest zipline.

The locals say that the beauty of nearby Crater Lake is reason alone to settle down here. An 183,224-acre park containing America’s deepest lake, striking geologic features & a historic lodge. Visitors to Crater Lake enjoy biking, fishing, swimming, boating, climbing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ziplining and more. There are numerous trails around the lake for hiking and accessing the swimming beach. And if you’re into birdwatching, this is a mecca  – it’s along the largest migratory bird route in the West!

The county was named for the Klamath, the tribe of Native Americans living in the area at the time the first European explorers entered the region. The area offers excellent medical facilities, a major airport and great shopping. Cook up your own camp meals, or enjoy a variety of dining options in Klamath county from fine dining to fast food. We hear the Waffle Hut is a must! Many smaller high tech companies are being attracted to the area and you’ll meet like-minded folk who live in Klamath because of its clean air, clean water, low crime and low cost of living. 

The nearby town of Beatty was named for J. L. Beatty, a missionary who lived nearby when the area was in the Klamath Indian Reservation. Beatty actually had a station on the Oregon, California and Eastern Railway, back in the day. It’s secluded enough for you to live peacefully yet close enough to larger areas for supplies and medical needs. 

With a view of the mountains in the background, your rustic property is filled with dry grasses & sage brush, and peppered with trees. Rural residential zoning and no time limit to build.  Build a tiny house or camp for up to 21 days every six months. And yes, cell service is available! For a low down payment, get ready to come call this home!
